Antuk

The Fisherdog

• Lives near a rural town of an unknown era on a forested mountain with many rivers
  
• The villagers like them enough that sometimes they leave food scraps out for them to munch. Children like to play with Antuk because they're big and calm. Sometimes Antuk acts kinda like a guard for the kids when they're out and about; snakes and such can pose a threat.
  
• There had been a point where a family had "taken them in" and even bestowed them with a cute little bandana, but the family moved and Antuk eventually lost the bandana. It got caught and tore away.
  
• Sees a lot of weird supernatural stuff but is just a dog! So has no real idea what's going on :^) Probably accidentally crosses into a yokai-like world on accident a few times.
